For the last 10 years I have agreed that classic Japanese cars are more valuable in Japan than Aus, but I think Aussies are starting to understand the value of these cars more than ever now.
A new generation has grown up with imported Jap performance cars. The cult of the GT-R is alive and well with Bathurst heritage. The prices of good zeds are strong here now. They were the best selling sports car in the USA in the early 70s eclipsing all US muscle car sales...
Japanese prices that looked so stupid 5-15 years ago have been stagnant with their economy. The prices don't seem so silly to me now.
A tired Toyota 2000GT in need of total restoration made $226,000 at Bonhams auction in Aus 2 years ago...
So what would a good Z432 be worth here???
